Chapter 173 Delivering Food
Chen Ziqian wrapped the lunch box of egg custard with the towel she had just wrapped in the lunch box: "My grandfather loves egg custard, I'll take this box of egg custard back to my grandfather!" With that, he turned and ran away.
"Hey! How can you do this! Bai Mengdie stood up and stretched out the spoon in the direction of Chen Ziqian's runaway, but no matter how long it was, it was useless, and everyone was gone.
Bai Mengdie had no choice but to sit down and eat white rice in despair.
To tell the truth, it is very painful to let a foodie eat white rice, so Bai Mengdie took a bite for half a day and ate it very slowly.
After a few bites of food, a young girl dressed plainly and holding two dishes in her hand walked into the classroom and asked, "Who is Bai Mengdie?" ”
Several other students who were eating in the classroom looked at Bai Mengdie at the same time, and Bai Mengdie responded, "I am." ”
The rustic girl smiled brightly and walked over to her seat.
put the fish-flavored shredded pork and kung pao chicken in her hand on her desk: "This is a boy named Chen Ziqian who bought it and asked me to send it to you, and I will come to collect it in half an hour." ”
Bai Mengdie stood up and said politely, "Thank you." ”
The young girl smiled and nodded.
In this era, the meals in restaurants in small county towns are full of food, and Bai Mengdie can eat two dishes alone.
She turned her head and asked a poor girl named Huang Wenjing in her class to eat with her.
Huang Wenjing squirmed, then walked over, sat down opposite Bai Mengdie, and ate solemnly.
Bai Mengdie was embarrassed to see her eating a dish, so she only put a little dish in the bowl for a long time, so she simply picked up the plate and poured more than half of each dish into her bowl.
Huang Wenjing was grateful and shy, and shouted again and again: "Enough is enough, why do you give it to me?" What do you eat? ”
She didn't fake refusal, she really didn't want to go, she wanted to take the bowl away, and she was afraid that Bai Mengdie would empty the dish and the dish would fall to the ground, spoiling the food, with a very uneasy expression.
Bai Mengdie only kept a small amount of each dish for herself, she poured the remaining vegetables on the plate into her lunch box with the soup, and said to Huang Wenjing: "I only need so many dishes, you can eat it while it's hot." ”
In fact, it is easy for Bai Mengdie to eat rice as a non-staple food and vegetables as a staple food, but the premise is that the dishes must be delicious.
If the dish is not to her liking, she would rather eat less.
In the end, it is a dish sold in a restaurant in a small county town, whether it is fish-flavored shredded pork or kung pao chicken, it doesn't taste very good.
Take this kung pao chicken for example, kung pao chicken uses chicken as the main ingredient, and then it is served with diced cucumbers, peanuts, chili peppers and other ingredients.
Red but not spicy, spicy but not violent, spicy and spicy, smooth and crispy, very delicious.
But in addition to the spicy taste, the Kung Pao chicken made by this small restaurant can't eat the fresh aroma of the chicken at all, and it is too salty, and the MSG is too heavy, and I feel dry after eating two bites.
The chili peppers in the fish-flavored shredded pork are pickled peppers, but this small restaurant uses dried chili peppers and fresh chili peppers, and the ingredients are not complete, only shredded carrots and celery stalks, which greatly reduces the taste.
Half an hour later, the young lady who delivered the food took the dishes away, and Chen Ziqian also took the washed empty lunch box back to school for evening self-study.
As soon as he entered the classroom, he handed the empty lunch box to Bai Mengdie, and said with a smile: "My grandfather likes to eat your steamed egg custard, can you still steam it for him tomorrow?"
Don't worry, you give my grandfather steamed egg custard, I'll go to the restaurant to order food for you, and I won't let you eat rice. ”
Bai Mengdie took out a water-based pen from the stationery box and prepared to do homework: "Grandpa likes to eat, then I will steam it for him again, I'm afraid that grandpa will be constipated when he eats too many eggs when he is old." ”
Bai Mengdie's most distressed thing is the elderly and children.
The old man deserves to enjoy his old age after a hard life, and the child has not grown up and should be taken care of, so she doesn't mind making egg custard for Grandpa Chen.
Although in her previous life, there was often negative news on the Internet about the old man's hegemony, lack of morality, and quarrels on the street, but the old people around her were very polite.
Never compete for a seat with young people in the car, they sit when someone gives up a seat, and then smile and say thank you.
No one gave up their seats, they stood silently until they got off the train, never complaining that young people nowadays don't know how to respect the elderly.
Traveling is very strict with oneself, for fear of being accused of low quality, and the arrogant and arrogant old people reported by the news media and the Internet are only a few.
Chen Ziqian waved his hand: "Don't worry, my grandfather is in good health, and I have never heard of him having constipation." ”
Bai Mengdie nodded in agreement.
Chen Ziqian leaned on her desk and asked flatteringly, "Are the two dishes I asked the restaurant to deliver delicious?" ”
Bai Mengdie pushed his head away, and it was almost next to her head: "It's not delicious, don't buy it in the future, if you're really worried that I won't have any food to eat, you can just buy me a bottle of fermented bean curd." ”
"Doesn't it taste good?" Chen Ziqian wondered, "Every time I eat their food, I think it tastes good, did I miss it today?" ”
Bai Mengdie lowered her voice and said with a look of disgust: "You said that you are also a rich child, as if you have never eaten, the fish-flavored shredded pork and kung pao chicken cooked in that small restaurant are as unpalatable as they are, and you still say that they taste good!" ”
Chen Ziqian laughed twice: "In a small county town, it is already considered a level to be able to make dishes like that."
Since you don't think the fish-flavored shredded pork and kung pao chicken made in that small restaurant are not delicious, then you have time to make these two dishes for me to eat, and let me taste what is called authentic fish-flavored shredded pork and kung pao chicken. ”
Bai Mengdie thought to herself, this guy will climb along the pole!
She said lightly: "Besides, are you here for evening self-study or are you here to chat with someone?" ”
Chen Ziqian said seriously: "Of course, I came to study at night." ”
Bai Mengdie immediately roared: "Then don't go back to your position and study hard, you can't stop making noise here!"
I won't stop you if you want to be a scumbag, but you can't stop me! ”
Chen Ziqian immediately ran back to his position, took out the book from the stomach of the desk and began to do his homework honestly.
Before he had done his homework for five minutes, Chen Ziqian ran again, squatted beside Bai Mengdie and whispered, "I saw you asking a few fruit sellers at noon how to buy plums, do you still have a lot of plums?" ”
Bai Mengdie shook her head: "It's not much, I asked for the villagers in our village." ”
"Oh." Chen Ziqian asked, "You want to help them sell plums?" ”
"Hmm." Bai Mengdie sighed lightly, "You don't know, the purchase price of plums in the countryside this year is so low."
Although no one in our village makes a living by selling plums, those plums are also grown by the villagers and are not wild.
It's sold so cheaply, I think it's a pity, so I want to help the villagers, but who knows if I can't help. ”
Chen Ziqian didn't say anything, got up and walked out of the classroom.
